south bay brokers: Oceanfront Living in Manhattan Beach - Real Estate Update on The Strand - 06/27/11 02:20 AM
We've seen some recent additions and a one recent sale on the prestigious Manhattan Beach Strand in the past month.  The notable sale was of 3516 The Strand at a price of $7,300,000, a Tuscan inspired home built in 2010 by Sexton Homes.  The home was most recently priced at $8,500,000 but perhaps more telling of the state of the luxury oceanfront market was that the home was originally pre-completion priced just shy of $14,000,000 in 2009.  The combination of an unusually abundant inventory of oceanfront homes, an initial price that was extremely aggressive and a much more challenging lending environment led … (0 comments)

south bay brokers: Manhattan Beach April Home Sales - 06/10/11 12:42 PM
April was a fairly strong month for home sales in Manhattan Beach. We saw a fairly typical 36 homes close escrow during the month but the pending home sales continued to trend upward with 45 homes in escrow. The luxury home market in Manhattan Beach had a strong month with 9 homes over $2.0M closing during April. As many of my Manhattan Beach home buyer clients have noticed there is a distinct shortage of homes in the $1.1-$1.5M range and the expected uptick in inventory prior to summer has yet to happen. The charts below show information for all of Manhattan … (0 comments)

south bay brokers: Your making it difficult to sell your home - 05/23/11 04:00 PM
I was just setting showing appointments in Redondo Beach for tomorrow and it always surprises me just how difficult sellers can make it on themselves.  In the area I'm looking there are currently 6 very similar listings....same buildings, same complexes and similar ocean views.  While reading the agent remarks the first I was scheduling an appointment with doesn't have a lockbox and states "Please bring your very qualified buyers, preferably with loan approval. Escrow to be 45 days + 5 days to move."  Too many restrictions in a market like this.  The second home states "Show after 6:00 p.m. Monday to Friday … (1 comments)

south bay brokers: Oh How I Love Hermosa Beach - 04/17/11 10:18 PM
I've lived and worked in Hermosa Beach for a very long time and it just never ceases to amaze me just how much I like this town.  What makes Hermosa Beach so unique, even when compared with it's neighbors Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach, is the small town feel if offer while being part of such a metropolis like Los Angeles.  Yesterday offered a series of races for kids and adults and it was hard to walk 50 feet in the Pier Plaza area without running into friends and colleagues.  With one elementary school, one middle school, a quaint downtown area and the … (1 comments)

south bay brokers: South Bay Oceanfront - Manhattan and Hermosa Beach Strand Update - 02/01/11 08:18 PM

south bay brokers: More REOs or Bank Owned Homes in the Luxury Market of Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach - 01/05/11 06:35 PM
I have many clients contact me about "foreclosures" in Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach and I often have to go into the details of what this means and that foreclosures generally can mean anything from notice of defaults filed, to short sales listed on the MLS, to bank auctions, to actual REOs or bank owned homes.  Each have their own challenges but most of the time they're primarily looking for bank owned homes.  Although short sales have gotten much easier and quicker in most cases, bank owned homes are a much more straightforward transaction as most of the unknowns, as to … (0 comments)

south bay brokers: Redondo Beach Bank Owned and REO Opportunities - 11/30/10 08:33 PM
With interest rates remaining historically low, the market slowing down, and sellers becoming more motivated all of the time it's a great time to be a home buyer.   Possibly the best source of great homes at below market prices are bank owned or REO properties.  While not as prevalent as in more distressed areas around the state, Redondo Beach has seen a recent increase in these properties.  Although dealing with banks isn't as simple as dealing with a standard sale, they're still generally much simpler then the short sale process which also offers great opportunities but often with long waits and … (0 comments)

south bay brokers: The Golden Hills of Redondo Beach - The Good and The Bad - 06/02/10 12:22 PM
As many of my clients are from out of the area or out of state, they seem to have a notion that the South Bay is simply one big city and there aren't all that many differences between Manhatgtan Beach, Hermosa Beachand Redondo Beach.  The reality is that even within these cities the individual neighborhoods vary quite a bit.  Due to the sheer size of the city, Redondo Beach is one of the more varied communities in the South Bay in terms of types of housing, size and age, and price. 

The area just east of Hermosa and just South of … (0 comments)
